Giant encephalocele is a rare condition in which the central nervous system structures in any combination protrude through a defect in the skull and the size of the head is smaller than that of the deformity. A few cases are reported globally. We report the case of a 13-days old neonate suffering giant encephalocele, he underwent a successful surgical intervention in a limited-resource setting.

We describe a 5-year-old child with extrahepatic biliary stone who successfully underwent endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography for stone removal. He suffered from persistent colicky abdominal pain accompanied by fever that biliary stone confirmed him. ERCP along with other methods, can be considered a safe procedure for managing BD in children.
